With its high capacity battery-electric buses, substantial stations, frequent service and streamlined operations, the City Line will function as part of an enhanced network to connect workers to jobs, people to services and partner in regional economic development. To create this functionality, STA has long planned to revise existing routes that connect to the City Line corridor, as well as introduce other service improvements. Additionally, STA intends to make other route revisions to improve system performance as part of the continuous effort to deliver service to more customers within limited resources. This report is the first in a series of iterations that depicts how STA’s routes and schedules could be altered between now and the opening of the City Line in May 2022. Unless otherwise noted, the implementation of these improvements is subject to a phased consultation process, beginning with this Preliminary Proposal and leading ultimately to a series of service revisions approved by the STA Board of Directors. Planned or proposed changes would take place primarily during three service changes: September 2020 Service Revisions Cheney Corridor High Performance Transit Service Service enhancements on the Cheney HPT Corridor will begin in 2020. Facilities and vehicle improvements will be completed in 2021-2022. The implementation of the service and capital improvements for Cheney HPT will be finalized with the Board Planning and Development Committee through a separate process in early 2020, addressing modifications from earlier plans. For purposes of the Preliminary Proposal, it is assumed these changes will go into effect in 2020 and therefore reflected in maps within this document. May 2021 Service Revisions Greater Spokane Valley Network Adjustments Route changes are proposed in Spokane Valley, Millwood, Liberty Lake and unincorporated Spokane County in order to serve new requested destinations. The proposed changes preserve service to destinations identified in STA Moving Forward while addressing under- performing segments of the existing Route 95 Mid Valley. 2021- 2022 Service Revisions 3 Spokane Transit Authority Draft 1/30/2020 May 2022 Service Revisions City Line The City Line is a six-mile, corridor-based Bus Rapid Transit route connecting Browne’s Addition to Spokane Community College by way of Downtown Spokane and the University District. The concept and design for the City Line (previously known as the Central City Line) has been developed in collaboration with numerous stakeholders over the last several years. While the City Line will be a major part of these service changes, it is not a major focus of this report as the significant decisions regarding the routing and service levels have already been made. Increased Service to Airway Heights Two different concepts are proposed to increase service to Airway Heights consistent with STA Moving Forward. The concepts also acknowledge the role the City Line takes on as it becomes the primary service Browne’s Addition, allowing Routes 60 and 61, which currently travel through this neighborhood, to be relocated to Sunset Boulevard thereby providing direct access to Downtown Spokane. Expand Hillyard and Northeast Spokane Routes Two different concepts are proposed to increase service, improve connections to other parts of the region, serve new destinations in northeast Spokane, and enhance connectivity to other areas. These changes include discontinuing and/or modifying existing routes that duplicate the City Line routing. 2021- 2022 Service Revisions 4 Spokane Transit Authority Draft 1/30/2020 Development of the Preliminary Proposal The STA Moving Forward plan, as amended, and the board-adopted 2019 Transit Development Plan (TDP) identify several significant service changes and improvements that would go into effect in 2021 and 2022. Fixed-route service design requires a robust examination of opportunities, feedback and consideration of policies and design principles. This Preliminary Proposal has been developed in accordance with the principles and policies of Connect Spokane, STA’s comprehensive plan for public transportation, while meeting the commitments set forth in the STA Moving Forward plan. While these are rigorous requirements and policies, they still provide ample room for public input, discussion, and technical considerations. Indeed, transit planning has both elements of art and science with a heavy dosage of constraints introduced by the built environment. Given this, virtually every improvement in the STA Moving Forward plan will have an appropriately scaled public input process that precedes the implementation of the service or when specific design considerations are under evaluation. Voters’ approval of the funding for STA Moving Forward represents more of a beginning to public input rather than the final decision. The Communication and Public Input element of Connect Spokane: A Comprehensive Plan for Public Transportation states: As a public agency, Spokane Transit Authority believes that proper communications and public input is of the highest importance. To ensure transparency, accountability, and fairness, STA must use a broad range of communication tools to reach as many people as possible. Communication and Public Input Policy 1.1 Major Service Changes mandates that when major service changes are proposed (either a large service reduction, or a restructure of the network), STA will follow federal guidelines for public outreach as well as develop a Public Outreach plan that must receive approval by the STA Board. A public outreach plan for these service changes was adopted by the

  • Operations and Financial Analysis
    OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS APRIL 22, 2015 PREPARED BY: LOUIS BERGER WATER SERVICES TABLE OF CONTENTS A) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY B) OPERATIONS ANALYSIS C) FINANCIAL ANALYSIS D) APPENDICES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Louis Berger was tasked by the Baltimore City Department of Transportation (BCDOT) to evaluate the Charm City Circulator (CCC) bus operation and analyze financial performance, and develop route operations alternatives that maximize ridership while minimizing costs. Objective The objective is to develop and evaluate alternatives to eliminate the annual deficits while providing maximum service to riders within existing financial resources. Description of Current System Existing Condition The CCC consists of four routes, Purple, Orange, Green and Banner providing “Fast. Friendly. Free.” service throughout downtown Baltimore 362 days per year, with hours of service varying by day type and by season. Key characteristics of each route: Purple Route- runs north - south from Federal Hill to Historic Mount Vernon. Ten (10) minute headways require six (6) buses to operate. Heaviest ridership of all the routes. Orange Route- runs east – west from Historic Fell’s Point and Harbor Point in the east beyond University of Maryland, Baltimore in the west. Ten (10) minute headways require five (5) buses to operate. Ridership is second best in the system. Green Route- roughly U shaped route serves Johns Hopkins University Hospital East Baltimore Campus (JHUH) connecting south to Harbor Point and Harbor East, then northwest to park and ride lots, looping down near City Center then back around. Ten (10) minute headways require six (6) buses. Longest route, least productive in terms of riders. Banner Route- angles southeast of the city past Federal Hill to Fort McHenry.

  • Route(S) Description 26 the Increased Frequency on the 26 Makes the Entire Southwestern Portion of the Network Vastly More Useful
    Route(s) Description 26 The increased frequency on the 26 makes the entire southwestern portion of the network vastly more useful. Please keep it. The 57, 60, and 61 came south to the area but having frequent service in two directions makes it much better, and riders from these routes can connect to the 26 and have much more areas open to them. Thank you. Green Line The increased weekend service on the Green line to every twenty minutes is a good addition of service for Campbell which is seeing markedly better service under this plan. Please keep the increased service. Multiple Please assuage public concerns about the 65 and 83 by quantifying the impact the removal of these routes would have, and possible cheaper ways to reduce this impact. The fact is that at least for the 65, the vast majority of the route is duplicative, and within walking distances of other routes. Only south of Hillsdale are there more meaningful gaps. Mapping the people who would be left more than a half mile (walkable distance) away from service as a result of the cancellation would help the public see what could be done to address the service gap, and quantifying the amount of people affected may show that service simply cannot be justified. One idea for a route would be service from winchester transit center to Princeton plaza mall along camden and blossom hill. This could be done with a single bus at a cheaper cost than the current 65. And nobody would be cut off. As far as the 83 is concerned, I am surprised the current plan does not route the 64 along Mcabee, where it would be eq..
